How Flowcode works
At the time of checking, Flowcode offers a free plan with limits and paid plans billed on a recurring basis. Flowcodes route through Flowcode's own platform, which is what enables its analytics, landing pages and later edits. Flowcode also has a recognisable default design with its branding, and removing or customising that is tied to plan level.
For brands running marketing campaigns and collecting first-party data, the platform approach has clear benefits.
Why people switch
QRNever tends to appeal to people who want:
A plain static code containing their URL directly, with no redirect and no third-party branding.
A small number of editable codes at a low, predictable price, with no fear of them dying if the plan ends.
Minimal data collection on scanners: country and rough device type only.
Downloadable SVG and PDF files they fully own.
Things to consider
Flowcode's analytics, CRM features and landing pages go far beyond QRNever's simple stats. If those drive your marketing, it may be worth the subscription. If you mostly need a code that reliably opens a URL, a static code is simpler and has no dependency on any company, including us. Existing Flowcodes rely on Flowcode's platform, so keep that in mind before cancelling.

Can I recreate a Flowcode as a static QRNever code?+
Yes, make a URL code pointing at the same destination. You'll need to replace printed codes, since the old pattern points at Flowcode's domain.
What scan data does QRNever record?+
For dynamic codes only: the scan time, a two-letter country code and a rough device type. For static codes, nothing, because scans never reach our servers.
Does QRNever build landing pages?+
No. Dynamic codes redirect to any web page you already have.
